Blissed out
What do you consider the most overrated virtue?
Prudence
On what occasion do you lie?
When I love. I don’t have to share every single thought that comes to my mind when I am with people that I love. Especially if it would hurt them.
Lies are just distortions of reality. Not as bad as everyone makes them out to be.
Do you dream in French or in English?
Both!

Dominance
Which words or phrases do you most overuse?
Honey! I call everyone honey! And I love to say thank you, and oh my Lord!

I would say myself ages 1-10. I think a lot of people are so hard on their little selves.
When and where were you happiest?
Eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on the beach in Florida, when I was a child.
Which talent would you most like to have?
I already have the greatest talent in the world! Why would I want another one?

Deep breathes and then I say, “I give love. I receive love. I am love.” Exhale.
What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Getting the hell out of Mississippi.
What is your earliest memory of music playing at home when you were a kid?
When I was little, my mammaw had a karaoke machine that she would sing hymnals on. That was my favorite thing to listen to her sing those songs.

Switzerland or New Zealand
What is your most treasured possession?
My wedding ring and my mother’s old jewelry box from when she was a teenager.
Do you talk to people sitting next to you in planes?
Depends on the vibes of the other people. When I was younger I would talk to anyone and everyone, but now I am way more selective.
Do you receive love letters in your DM?
I did before when I was sending out that sort of hey I am easy and available hysterical and unstable kind of energy.

My softness, my curves, my lusciousness (I know more than 1!)

No judgements

Who is your hero of fiction?
Oh I love rebel girls and rule breakers like Trixie Belden (Trixie Belden Mysteries), Lyra Belacqua (The Golden Compass), and Lauren Olamina (Parable of the Sower)
You have to understand I was raised to be good and proper and follow the rules. I desperately needed fictional heroes who marched to the beat of their own drum and followed their intuition against all odds.
Who are your real life heroes?
Anyone who is brave enough to go deep inside themselves and do the inner work. The only way we can make the world a better place is by healing ourselves.
PJ or Tori?
Oh God I love them both! Ok Baby Sarah chooses Tori obviously. Older wiser Sarah chooses PJ. Let England Shake was so unique.
Which venue would be a dream spot to perform?
Carnegie Hall
What is your favorite Madonna song ?
Oh there are so many good ones! Rain, Live to Tell and Open Your Heart! My top three. Too hard to choose just one don’t you think?
What is your motto?
Thank you, I love you, I am sorry, Forgive me. Works like a charm every time.
